Electrical Engineering implies electricity, which has flowed into every aspect of our lives. Electricity supplies power to run appliances, heavy machinery, and lights. Electricity also encompasses communications such as the telephone, radio, and television and other consumer electronic devices. And, of course, electronics is changing everything around us every day, through such pervasive devices as hand-held calculators, computers, and controllers that help operate automobiles, airplanes, and homes. Electrical Engineering from the electrical engineering college in West Bengal is the largest engineering profession.

Industry Academia Tie Ups
Collaboration between academia and industry is increasingly a critical component of efficient national innovation systems. It is useful to examine the experience of developed countries to better understand the different types of university-industry collaboration, motivations to form these agreements and barriers to cooperation, as well as the role of public policy in fostering such linkages. Developing countries face even greater barriers to such alliances, calling for a differentiated approach to promoting university-industry collaboration.

Events and Activities
Parent Teacher Interaction Session (PTIS)
Like last year we organized PTIS this year too. It was on 8th February, 2020. To delineate a uniqueness, parents were felicitated with roses by their own children. Unlike a general PTIS where parents sit like mere silent audience we offered enough room to speak and we answered their queries one after another. Finally the session ended once all queries were resolved and parents parted us with rising hopes in mind for better future of their children. We trusted them. They trusted us, we believe.

Assistant Professor Swapan Majumder, TIC, Electrical Engineering Department presided over the meeting. Although PTM in engineering colleges is not very common, yet we tried for it. To make it unique we included students along with their parents in the meeting. Parents were extremely happy to get such a platform that they could ventilate themselves.
Industrial Visit to Canal Top Solar Power Plant
Our students visited the Canal Top Grid Type Hybrid Solar PV Power Plant located at Gate no.-6,Eco-Park, New Town, Kolkata on 28th September, 2018. It has power generation capacity of 500 kwp. The solar panels are being naturally cooled by water flowing through canal under it. This is really special in this sense.
Visiting such solar power plant is particularly important as the world is heading towards renewable energy sources and students could learn how the apparently useless space can be effectively used for benefit of mankind. It is presently maintained by Agni for New Town Kolkata Development Authority.
